Grado Prestige 3 Series Silver3 Stylus

The imaging is noticeably more precise compared to the stock stylus, especially on acoustic recordings. It's given my old turntable a new lease on life without breaking the bank.

Swapped this onto my deck and the tracking was spot-on from the first spin—no sibilance, just clear, lively sound that made my old records feel new. The diamond tip is nicely polished for the price, and it's held up through a few weeks of daily use without any wear issues.

The midrange on this replacement stylus is incredibly natural and open, making vocals sound like they're in the room with you. It tracks well through complex passages without any noticeable distortion.
